At last the Cipro has begun to kick in and I feel well enough to get some pictures of my garden.The Garden Gate people fertilized it .....whatever they used has been very effective.I can't show you my pictures....."They" say they are too large.I had my camera adjusted to the right size.I'll have to get some expert help.Too bad they were pretty nice pictures if I do say so myself.Joy

Joy, I sent you a pm , but I'll repeat part of it here because others might like the information too.. You can get Irfanview, which is a free program that will allow you to view just about every picture and video format there is. You can use it to view a picture , do minor editing and resizing and then save it in many different formats .. The most common one that the forum accepts is .jpg . You can load a picture of another type into Irfanview, resize or otherwise edit it and then save it off as a .jpg to send it to the forum . By loading a picture into Irfanview and then saving it under a new name, you can keep your original picture and have a copy to use for the forum or e-mail . If you get Irfanview , also get the plug-ins for it .There are many programs with far more extensive editing functions , both free versions and pay ones, but none are easier to use for re-sizing and format change than Irfanview.You can get the link to a download service to get Irfanview and its plug-ins by going to http://www.irfanview.ca and clicking on a download link there.

There are several online services for storing and linking photos that can also be used to link pictures into the forum . One of the most popular is Photobucket, but there are several out there. I don't know the picmonkey that Puff10 mentions , but it may work much the same as many of the other free services . Google , Microsoft, Yahoo and others also have their offerings.
